This is absolutely out-of-this-world amazing!While looking at the progression of Ms Vanderhoop's work, I had a deep sense of awe and a certainty that I was witnessing something very sacred.I am so grateful and thankful to Ms. Vanderhoop and artists like her to keep the old sacred tradions alive and thus giving us something to hold on in this ugly, busy, materialistic world.
